Spring 2010 Message

This year is shaping up to be a lot of fun and we want you to join us.

On the Saturdays that the ARC is open – the first and third of each month – we will be screening DVDs of some of your favorite Laurel & Hardy and Our Gang comedies which were made right here at the Hal Roach Studios in Culver City (marked with a plaque at the SW corner of Washington & National Blvds.) Come laugh with us and have a good time (sorry, no popcorn in the ARC!)

We have a full calendar planned, including the following:

In April, at our General Meeting, Cali Rose will present songs that made Culver City famous.

In May, we will be marking Carlson Park as the Society’s Historical Site #12 (full story on pg. 1).

And in July, our annual picnic will have a little different twist this year. Steve Fry, our VP, Programs (who is planning all kinds of fun and interesting events) will provide us with a Dixieland Band and a catered dinner.

So please save the dates (see Page 6), and come celebrate this wonderful town that we all call home. We are looking forward to seeing you at these upcoming events and at the ARC on the first and third Saturdays of the month – and we invite you to become a CCHS volunteer!
